Sphiinnx Hope everyone thinks the same way as you. I mean.. NUF is blowing up regarding this premium stuff. They goin hella crazy.

Noire We should repost your comment until some people realize the fact that it's not the end of the world and if they really like the novels but they're no patrons and only read for free the least they can do is stop bitching about this premium program. slams door

queenofkahel They will always be mad they hit qidian for reasons which some are justifiable not gonna lie but companies can change. Can u link the thread?

For freemiums you can still read freely. Unless it is the advanced bonus chapters or the premium chapters, they are now locked behind 7-15 SS each chapter, amount depending on word count. So people that actually support site can now have something to use their SS for. Again, premium chapters are no different than patreon chapters.

You have a daily income of 15+ SS daily(may increase depending on the future watchable ads they will implement). Now stop reading lavishly and actually spend the amount that your income can actually handle, lol. :D

Will all books eventually become premium?

Sphiinnx Some of their reasonings are valid, yes. But most often than not, they seem to be a little overboard. https://forum.novelupdates.com/threads/qidians-paywall.58110/page-6#post-3705020

can anyone tell what exactly changed? Is it just a payment so you can ignore spirit stones and ads?

Tomz so, this system is not like patreon, just pay 1x per month, then i can read all the chapters in qidian for free?
This system same with chinese qidian? pay per chapter?

Immortal mortal has 21 regular chapters for now, so the premium chapters include the regular chapters? or the premium chapters are chapters outside regular chapters.

thanks

can someone help me to answer this? just for people who truly understand

[unknown] Answer this @[deleted] you knowledgeable man.

Paying for advanced chapters seems fair, why change the model for free users though?

LiZhiEr thats a problem actually

So we gotta be more selective in novels now

Hey guys, why are so worked up they are just having patreon here instead of that site. That's it nothing's changed. As simple as that

Will the spirit stones still have a time limit and expire?

JrExceed Please dont.. At least 10 stone per ads

How do you become a premium user? How can you purchase spirit stones?

DaoistBashful Premium for free novels are chapters that are released for free, you don't have to use SS to read it. While in Premium novels not for free, you have to use SS in order to read. These PFF chapters are being released in a scheduled manner.

kishoregoku You can purchase spirit stones through paypal. But you can also get it for free, just log in every day, invite friends etc etc.

Tomz That's pay per chapter, for now at least. Like you said, Immortal mortal's 21 regular chapters include the premium chapters. In fact, all the new chapters of Immortal mortal are premium chapters from now on I guess. For example, 21 chapters are updated in one week and for free users, only 7 of them will be set to free chapters day by day. As a result, the gap between the newest free chapter and the actual newest one will be bigger and bigger

Hello quidan, can you hide the title chapters? This just give us spoilers to whom who cant pay. Its seriously suck as hell.

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL 14 spirit stones? And you get to read 1 1/16 novel a day..good. awesome.

yevel Is that a big of a deal?

yevel I think its part of the new strategy marketing, getting u hooked up unable to resist that "locked" page lol

Exp_Sect_GM mmhh is it just me or is sarcasm spread all over your comment? Jk

kishenkp it was never for free as they where always paid revenue from the ads we watch to get the chapter apparently though it was not enough :(

From what I understood, the premium chapters are the chapters that the translator is currently doing?
Like, the schedule is 7/week, if the translator works on 21/week, that is his own business, it shouldn't change the schedule. It's like that translator is having some over time and getting paid more, seems good enough for me, lmao

When we buy SS will there be any discounts on paying the chaps?? What are the other ways on getting the badge?

How long does it take for you guys to process payment been waiting for a while now after purchasing and even tried buying again and it just says to wait and check later. Also would be a good idea to add more payment options.

Itachi2K3 Then how come the Release That Witch Chapters today cost SS when it's on the premium for free list

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL will you let us grind SS with video ads? Please? Pretty please?
And please make some chapters cheaper, 8 SS is kind of too expensive...

One thing I'm wondering,

If I unlock 1 premium chapter with spirit stones, let's say chapter 105 (with the current free chapters being at 104), then next day will the free chapter unlocked for me be 106, or will that premium chapter 105 that I unlocked become the free chapter released to everyone.

Ryxvert Maybe some admin will assist you regarding this problem

Miya Love how you're pretty much calling the free readers leechers, parasites to their face even the vast part of them that watched the adds to get access to the chapters and thus technically paid for said chapters.
Not everyone has the excess cash to fork off just to keep up to date with all the chapters of their many favorite stories especially if they're students for exemple.

I understand the situation so I don't mind paying
But c'mon !
I read many novels but only 2 of them have extra chapters released
I need more stimulus Qidian !

Miya I agree that it is cheap, we can still read for free and given how many novels are on this site i expect that you can satisfy your thirst until the next chapter of your favorite novel is released from premium mode.

Again we have to remember it's a beta, it is very likely to change in many different way depending on how it works with us. It is still something to watch and give our input on if only to ensure that it stays something that pretty much everyone can be ok if not happy with without turning into things like what happens with EA games.

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL I get that you need to make money for the writers editors translators basically everyone who works for the company but I think there should be a subscription per novel or even for all of them even if it’s weekly or monthly. Obviously I have very little expectation that they will do this. I don’t know how much words per page a book actually has because I’m not a avid reader of physical books myself but I’m sure youre not paying as much as you would be per word compared to this website, I think showing people teasers of the chapters that they can’t have access to is pointless why not just have the title and option to unlock it? Or even have an option that just shows you that there are 10 chapters that can be unlocked? Although a lot of people hate on the company for trying to make money I understand where they’re coming from it just seems so forced I don’t mind watching adds for chapters which I have no doubt I’ll still have to do every time a free chapter comes out still, but to basically use chapters and there teasers as incentives to buy ss sucks for the people who cant afford or don’t want to pay for them.

Wait so I can still get SS from daily check in and other things and I can still use SS to unlock the chapters, But now it's also for premium titles other than the already existing Bonus chapters that require SS to unlock. So basically I can still get everything for free ?

Will this premium thing also include those novels that barely update as is??? (Im also talking SS increase) cause sometimes you still have to pay SS even though it’s been a month waiting for updates

tankbusternbiscuit Yep bingo the only difference is premium has no ad option and the SS price is scaled by word count
